I want a Kemper

Postby FOT » Tue Jan 12, 2016 9:13 pm

That's right. I want one.

Can anyone think of a reason for me NOT to buy one? Any at all?

I've been having a hard time lately with picking what amp I want to get to replace my Axe-FX II. Problem is, I can't make up my mind. This could potentially solve my problems, or create more!

Never tried one, but hear nothing but good things about them.
Either you're a part of the problem or you're a part of the solution. What's your contribution to life???

Same here mate. I'd say it would suit my needs pretty well, considering I can't decide what amp I'll be happy with. If the recreation is as good as they say it is, I wouldn't need to choose.

What's wrong with the Axe FX ? I thought the II version was supposed to be excellent

I've had 3 of them... In all of their variants.

They are awesome, but I found I only used maybe 10% of what it can do. The Kemper has me intrigued though.

Have you tried a laney L5T 112. Sweet tubes and mate well with pedals of choice.

Axe fx. Turn on dick about with controls for 20 minutes, play for 3 mins, dick about some more. Play. Dick about.

Laney. Turn on, play. Tube breakup bliss.

I bought an Engl Ironball to stop the whole dicking about...

Then I got the urge to buy a Kemper. Less dicking than the Axe-FX, but still not without some dicking.
